MEMORANDUM
Before the court is the motion of plaintiff Cincinnati Insurance Company (Cincinnati) for summary judgment (Doc. No. 16). The parties have consented to the exercise of jurisdiction by the undersigned United States Magistrate Judge pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c). A hearing was held on December 10, 2001.
In this diversity action for declaratory judgment, Cincinnati seeks a declaration that it has no duty to defend its insured, defendant Venetian Terrazzo, Inc. (Venetian), in a law suit against Venetian by a third party, or to indemnify Venetian for damages awarded against it in that suit. The undersigned concludes that Cincinnati is entitled to summary judgment.
UNDISPUTED FACTS
The record establishes the following material facts about which there is no genuine dispute: Venetian is a Missouri corporation in the business of installing terrazzo tile floors. On November 10, 1995, Venetian entered into a subcontract with Brock-miller Construction Co. (Brockmiller) to install terrazzo flooring in Robert A. Dempster Hall at Southeast Missouri State University in Cape Girardeau, Missouri, for $140,684. The parties also executed a Guaranty and" Indemnification Agreement in which Venetian guaranteed its performance under the contract and promised to indemnify Brockmiller for all loss Brockmiller may sustain by reason of Venetian’s failure to perform.
Venetian completed the installation in the summer of 1996. The university began to experience problems with the terrazzo floor. In April 1999, Brockmiller’s liability insurance carrier notified Cincinnati that the university had demanded a full replacement of the floor, and that Brockmiller’s carrier intended to seek contribution and subrogation from Cincinnati and Venetian. In March 2001, Brockmiller commenced a judicial action against Venetian in the Circuit Court of Cape Girar-deau County, Missouri. Brockmiller alleged that Venetian failed to properly test and prepare the concrete sub-state for installation of the terrazzo tile and that, as a result, the terrazzo floor buckled and had to be redone by another subcontractor at a cost of $127,188.80. Brockmiller sought damages, expenses, costs, and attorney’s fees, alleging breach of implied and express warranties to perform the work in a workmanlike manner, negligence, and breach of the guaranty to indemnify Brockmiller against all loss, damages, and expenses sustained as a result of Venetian’s failure to properly perform its work. Motion Exh. D, filed September 28, 2001. *1076Venetian asserted as an affirmative defense that the problems with the floor resulted from another party’s negligence in pouring the cement subfloor which did not dry properly.
Cincinnati agreed to provide a defense to Venetian under a reservation of rights. Cincinnati then commenced the present action seeking a declaration that it has no duty to defend or indemnify Venetian under the two insurance policies it issued Venetian — a Commercial General Liability Policy and a Contractor’s Umbrella Liability Policy. It is undisputed that both policies were in effect during the relevant time.
The Commercial General Liability Policy provides in relevant part:
SECTION I — COVERAGES COVERAGE A. BODILY INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE LIABILITY

DISCUSSION
It is undisputed that the parties are corporate citizens of different states and that the amount in controversy exceeds $75,000.00, exclusive of interest and costs. Therefore, this court has subject matter jurisdiction over the action. 28 U.S.C. § 1332.
Summary judgment is appropriate when the evidence, viewed in a light most favorable to the non-moving party, demonstrates that there is no genuine issue of material fact, and that the moving party is entitled to judgment as a matter of law. Callas Enters., Inc. v. The Travelers Ind. Co. of Am., 193 F.3d 952, 955 (8th Cir. 1999); Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(c).
The parties agree that Missouri law provides the applicable rules of decision. Under Missouri law,
[a]n insured has the burden to prove coverage under a policy. The burden rests on the insurer to prove that the loss was within a policy exclusion. The language of an insurance contract is to be given its plain meaning. If a policy is unambiguous it is to be enforced according to its terms, and if ambiguous, it is construed against the insurer.
Christian v. Progressive Cas. Ins. Co., 57 S.W.3d 400, 403 (Mo.Ct.App.2001) (cited cases omitted). A disagreement between the parties as to the meaning of the policy language does not suffice to create an ambiguity. Windsor Ins. Co. v. Lucas, 24 S.W.3d 151, 153 (Mo.Ct.App.2000). A court interpreting an insurance policy must consider the entire policy as a whole. Id.; Hawkeye-Security Ins. Co. v. Davis, 6 S.W.3d 419, 424 (Mo.Ct.App.1999).
Cincinnati argues that it is entitled to summary judgment because the underlying action by Brockmiller does not seek damages for losses arising out of an “occurrence,” as that term is defined in the policies. Furthermore, according to Cincinnati, the losses alleged in the Brockmil-ler suit are specifically excluded by exclusions b, j(6), and 1 in the Commercial General Liability Policy, and by exclusions (n) and (o)(3) in the Contractors Umbrella Liability Policy. Venetian argues that the damages sought by Brockmiller in the underlying suit for negligence are covered by the two policies, because negligence is an “accident,” as that term is used by the policies. Venetian also argues that the general liability policy excepts insured contracts from the exclusions, and the claimed exclusions in both policies do not apply, *1079because Venetian was not the sole cause of the loss alleged by Brockmiller.
In Columbia Mut. Ins. Co. v. Schauf, 967 S.W.2d 74 (1998), the Missouri Court of Appeals explained that
[a] commercial general liability policy ... is not intended to protect business owners against every risk of operating a business .... [G]eneral liability coverage is not intended as a guarantee of the quality of an insured’s product or work. In an attempt to give effect to the intent underlying both the coverage and exclusion provisions of commercial liability policies, courts have interpreted such policies as insuring the risk of the insured causing damage to other persons and their property, but not insuring the risk of the insured causing damage to the insured’s own work.
Id. at 77 (internal citations and quotations omitted).
There are two duties involved in this case: the duty to defend and the duty to indemnify. An insurer’s duty to defend is broader than its duty to indemnify. Millers Mut. Ins. Assoc. of Ill. v. Shell Oil Co., 959 S.W.2d 864, 869 (Mo.Ct.App.1997). An insurer has a duty to defend an insured if the allegations of the complaint against the insured state a claim which is potentially or arguably within the policy’s coverage. Id. Here, as the parties acknowledged at the hearing, the duty to defend rises and falls with the duty to indemnify.
Venetian’s argument is without merit that its alleged negligence, or the negligence of another party in pouring the cement subfloor, constituted an “accident,” and hence an “occurrence” within the meaning of either insurance policy. See American States Ins. Co. v. Mathis, 974 S.W.2d 647, 650 (Mo.Ct.App.1998) (the term “occurrence” in a commercial general liability policy, defined as an “accident,” does not encompass the negligence or breach of contract in the insured’s performance of its contract work; such “cannot be described as an undesigned or unexpected event”); Hawkeye-Security Ins. Co., 6 S.W.3d at 426 (same as to underlying claims of breach of contract in the performance of contract work by insured).
Thus, Venetian has not satisfied its burden of showing an “occurrence” within the meaning of the policies. Under such circumstances, it is unnecessary to determine whether any exclusions apply. See Hawkeye-Security Ins. Co., 6 S.W.3d at 427.1
Accordingly, the motion of plaintiff for summary judgment (Doc. No. 16) must be sustained.
A separate Declaratory Judgment is filed herewith.
